Skoolie in Austin tx

Hello, we are a family of 4 starting our conversion to live full time in a 1992 international bus, I'm looking to connect with people around the Austin tx area that have done the same. We are looking for knowledge, tips, and hopefully see other conversions in our area. If your in the Austin and surrounding area lets connect!

While we haven't converted a bus yet, we are seriously interested in starting in the next 10 months. We are a family of 5 living in north Austin and would love to connect with you guys if it works out.

Sorry about the whole Austin thing, but I'm a bit farther south between Seguin and San Antonio. Prepping a full size flat nose for a full time conversion. Hurricane Harvey and then a third child have delayed our project a few months. We should be making some serious progress the next few weeks thanks to some scheduled time off work.

Hit me up if you have any questions or concerns you need assistance with.


Austin can stay weird, just keep it contained there.

We are doing the same!

We are a family of three doing a conversion within the next year. Only problem is, we can’t seem to find anywhere to park it while we convert it in Austin. Anyone know or have an area for this?

Were you ever able to find land to park the bus on during the conversion? I just bought my bus and need to find a place to park it for the next three months.
